These days, watching Layer2 compete in TPS, fees, and subsidies has been quite lively, but I actually want to slow down. Whether the chain is fast or not can be put aside for now; the real thing is to avoid giving your wallet "unlimited authorization." To put it simply, if you give a contract unlimited permissions, it's like slipping a door key into someone else's pocket. Usually it's fine, but if something goes wrong, they can wipe everything out immediately, and you can't even save your take-profit line.
Now I’ve gotten used to a fixed routine before bed: checking which old authorizations are still unused, revoking what I can, even if it means a few extra clicks. Being a little slow isn’t embarrassing; missing out on fewer regrets is the best. Anyway, the narrative will change, but permissions won’t disappear on their own. That’s it for now.
